Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (part of Richmond upon Thames in south-west London) where I have lived since 1996. It delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

New trees on Ham Common

Fourteen of the new trees on Ham Common were vandalised, mostly with dogs, and so their replacements have been protected by deer fences that are more familiar in Richmond Park. It is a shame that such measures are necessary but I hope that they work and this generation of trees is allowed to grow-up to join their more elderly neighbours in forming a grand avenue across the common.
